x^{2}=\frac{3.2}{0.309}
Divide both sides by 0.309.
x^{2}=\frac{3200}{309}
Expand \frac{3.2}{0.309} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.
x=\frac{40\sqrt{618}}{309} x=-\frac{40\sqrt{618}}{309}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}=\frac{3.2}{0.309}
Divide both sides by 0.309.
x^{2}=\frac{3200}{309}
Expand \frac{3.2}{0.309} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 1000.
x^{2}-\frac{3200}{309}=0
Subtract \frac{3200}{309} from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-\frac{3200}{309}\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -\frac{3200}{309} for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-\frac{3200}{309}\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{\frac{12800}{309}}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -\frac{3200}{309}.
x=\frac{0±\frac{80\sqrt{618}}{309}}{2}
Take the square root of \frac{12800}{309}.
x=\frac{40\sqrt{618}}{309}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{80\sqrt{618}}{309}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-\frac{40\sqrt{618}}{309}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{80\sqrt{618}}{309}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=\frac{40\sqrt{618}}{309} x=-\frac{40\sqrt{618}}{309}
The equation is now solved.
